What are Newton-Centimeter and Pound-force Inch

Definition of Newton-Centimeter

A Newton-Centimeter (Ncm) is a unit of torque in the metric system. It represents the moment of force exerted by one Newton acting at a perpendicular distance of one centimeter from the axis of rotation. This unit is commonly used in physics and engineering to measure small torque values. Understanding this unit helps in various applications, from mechanical engineering to automotive industries, where precise torque measurements are crucial for performance and safety.

Definition of Pound-force Inch

A Pound-force Inch (lbf·in) is a unit of torque in the imperial system. It quantifies the rotational force exerted by one pound-force applied at a perpendicular distance of one inch from the axis of rotation. This unit is widely used in the United States and other countries following the imperial system. It is essential for applications in automotive, aerospace, and industrial machinery, where accurate torque measurements ensure the proper functioning and safety of various mechanical components.
